Let's have a bash at an allotment ......!?

Well after being on the council waiting list for 2 whole years!!!

 last month we were FINALLY given a plot at our local allotment site!!

Yipppppeeeeeee........!!!

we are the proud renters or plot number 4 !!

Yes rather big and overgrown but I accept the challenge !!

Collecting pallets for our composter!

and we even found a little surprise hiding between the weeds.....how cute?!!

The first dig.

The ground it soooooo hard and dry I find myself praying for rain for the first time in my life !!!

My composter is complete and tied together with string by my very own hands yippeeee!

Isn't it cute??

and a couple of chairs for a well earned rest.

These pic's were taken a couple of weeks ago when I was first getting started. I have since made a little more progress. Although it's late in the season in our British weather to start planting much I have had a bash with:

Carrots

Lettuce

Dwarf peas

Radish

Beetroot.

More pics of my progress to follow!
